Wow! Thank you to everyone who pitched in to make Hernandez Goes Gold for Childhood Cancer Awareness Week a great success! Thank you to the coaches, especially Coach Guerrero, Mrs. Daniels, Mrs. Winn, and Mrs. Hinegardener for giving their time and hearts to make this a special week for Armani and our students. Thank you to everyone that participated in our spirit week dress-up days and to those who donated to the cause. Next week, Armani would be 21 years old! Thank you Hernandez for honoring her and all kids that have faced and will face cancer in their lifetimes.

Tell us something random about you:
I have written over 88,000 words toward a novel (others are in the works), but it needs revisions. As it is based largely on long-term emotional abuse and the path to recovery, parts of it have proven too painful to go through! It's sitting as I work on other things until I can get back to it or hire a ghostwriter to help me out!
